Waterfront glamping with private dock and lake & bay views. Boat-Only Access!

This 2-Bedroom Bungalow has a large open eat-in kitchen with everything you need to prepare family meals. The first floor also has a full bathroom with standup shower. The living room has large windows to catch those beautiful sunsets inside from the sofa or you may prefer to end the night listening to the waves outside on the adjacent deck. One large lower level bedroom completes the first floor. It has a queen bed the looks out on to Lake Ontario. A large open loft contains a double bed and two twins which all together can comfortably sleep up to 6 guests. Lastly, a indoor sunroom off the front of the house makes a great spot for Breakfast dining or a mid-afternoon book.

As you boat up to the private dock from the bay, you will find a large sandy shore complete with a fire pit, picnic tables and large bar and grill for all your entertaining! The backyard facing the lake has a stone shore (sandy a few feet out) complete with another fire pit and large wooden deck.

Sodus Point Vacation
Amanda and Brian are outstanding hosts. The home was clean and well prepared and their communication was excellent. Swimming in Lake Ontario was great and having the boat to travel throughout the bay was fun. We went to Captain Jack's and were able to bring our dog to Pier 53 for off island meals and activity. Anchored at the sand bar multiple times to swim. Great vacation!

Great spot
A very nice cottage for a stay on Lake Ontario. If the lake is too rough, you just hang out on the dock on the bay side! Awesome fun!

Best Girls trip weekend!!
We stayed the weekend at the Lure...unfortunately this will be our first and last stay as the owners have sold the property. The weekend was AMAZING and if we could we would book this every summer. They were above and beyond with responding, accommodating, helping, etc. The property was so gorgeous...Sodus Bay in the back, the lake in the front. The sunsets were gorgeous!! The area is quiet, relaxing and beautiful. We are sad this was a one and done, but so grateful to have had the time there ;) 10 out of 10 for this getaway!!!

Lure Cottage was a perfect get away!
Lure Cottage was a perfect get away..We loved being surrounded by water the calmness of the bay on one side and lake on the other side. The cottage was perfect for our group..clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the kayaks and boat that was included in the rental.It was a very relaxing and fun get away..even our 2 dogs loved it..The sound of the waves at night and the spectacular sunsets made this a great vacation spot.Scott was very friendly and accommodating. It was very apparent that he loves his little piece of paradise and wanted us to enjoy it too..Thank you for sharing your cottage with us and for the wine cheese and crackers :) We will definitely be back!

Paradise
The cottage was just what our family needed to get away to a little piece of paradise. My husband, myself 2 teenagers and our 10 mo dog loved the water, sand and boat. Such freedoms surrounded by God’s creation!!! The hostess with the most Martha was the best bonus to our vacation at The Lure! She made sure everything was on point and did it all so graciously. And the kids loved her scavenger hunt. We were able to meet Scott taking us back upon our departure, what a humble busy man! We are grateful for them and their place closing out our summer desires to “be” as a family surrounded by such peace. Would of only added a few extras days…. BUT next time…

This is our second stay and I'm booking our third ASAP. This is a wonderful place that is good for anyone and everyone looking to escape. We spend our days fishing, swimming, looking for lake glass and enjoying the pure magic that this place is. Martha and Scott are amazing and helpful. We bring our dogs and they have the best time.

This is a great adventure, but not far from all that you could ask for!
We had a great time at your cottage. Loved the lake with private beach out back, kids had a blast surfing the waves. They were also able to swim out front off of the dock, where it was all sand. Such a great relaxing get away, Thank You!

Absolutely Amazing Book it Now!!!
What an amazing place. The house was perfect. The location was something out of a fairytale. The hosts were wonderful, helpful and always available for questions. Martha even had a treasure hunt for our daughter with a map and everything. The lake in the front yard and the bay in the back with fire pits on both sides was perfect. Family friendly but would be great for any kind of trip where you want to be wowed. I can't say enough good things and hope to make more memories at lure cottage.

We were a party of 14 young adults and had a blast. Little of everything relaxing in front of the beach during the day, making meals together, grilling, having drinks, playing card games and listening to music. To taking a mini excursion into Sodas Point. So much fun! Can't wait to do it again! Martha your amazing!
